Saturdays 8-2 win will be hard act to follow but Maculay has assembled a talented squad of good young players. If Awsworth Reserves are representative of the teams in their league then they should do well. Most of the team looked very young so not ready for the first team but given time, who knows?

First shot on goal by Wirksworth is a poor effort. Should have done better. Now a free kick to Wirksworth on edge of area. Super shot puts the greens ahead. 0-1. 11 mins

Ilkeston keeper does well after racing out to block a shot. Then he saves again to deny Wirksworth winger.
0-3. 43 mins

It’s been a reality check for Maculay. His lads have been outplayed by a very good Wirksworth Ivanhoe.

Wirksworth continue to dominate. Ilkeston are defending well but are finding it hard to mount any attacks of their own. It’s still 0-4 after 60 mins

Ilkeston’s best chance falls to Liam Seviour but his shot hits a defender and is deflected wide.
Water break on 66 mins. still 0-4

Diving save by Ilkeston keeper stops a certain goal. It’s been a better second half for Ilkeston.
